Where do I start. The mould on the bathroom ceiling, the shower water ends up pooling on the bathroom floor (water hits the shower screen and drains into the tiled hob and this overflows onto the floor), the tv turned on both mornings at 7am waking us up, there were crumbs all over one of the couches ...

This is a lovely place to go exploring at any time of the year. There is a walking track along the river that leads to a number of platforms, which has beautiful views over the falls.

After a decent winters rain, it's great for photographers. In summer you can find a lot of skinks here. Great biodiversity. #lovemytown
